Where the coast’s harvest begins.

Tour the largest hatchery in Massachusetts and the longest-running facility of its kind on the East Coast. ARC Hatchery Tours take you behind the scenes of where it all begins—watch shellfish spawning and early life stages up close before they head out to local, regional, and national farms.

Step inside a working distribution hub to see how shellfish are sorted, measured, and graded in real time before being packaged and shipped to restaurants and fish markets across the country.

Set along the beautiful Dennis Flats, with views stretching toward Chapin Beach, the experience blends active aquaculture with the natural coastal landscape.
